This is a free Google utility tool with no payment, subscription, premium tier, or billing code. All 'pro' keyword matches are false positives hitting 'process', 'product', 'procedure' in localization strings (e.g., 'Select a product', 'recovery process'). The 'billed' match is a false positive hitting Danish 'afbrudt' (interrupted). No payment platforms, no upgrade UI, no license checks.

- The extension is a standalone local utility that uses Chrome's native APIs (chromeosInfoPrivate, imageWriterPrivate, fileSystem) to create recovery media. The workflow (select device → select target drive → write image) requires no authentication. All keyword matches for 'auth', 'session', 'token', 'userid' are false positives from Closure Library license text (AUTHORS), analytics session tracking, and autocomplete UI code tokens—not actual login flows.
Have used this before, and anyone having difficulty using, steps are: 1. Install Chrome extension. 2. Click on Icon for extension, it will show a box to say you need an 8GB USB or SD card (it will be formatted). 3. Click Get Started, and select machine, do Chrome Flex OS if not a real Chromebook (i.e. old laptop). 4. Click Continue with USB and select USB. 5. Drive is created. Insert into spare machine and boot from USB to continue installing.. https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1080595
Linux no es compatible, estoy en Linux Mint 22 ¿como hago?
CAN'T FIND HOW TO START IT
FUNCIONA EXCELENTE DESDE EL NAVEGADOR CHROME.
working perfectly.
Don't be a Mr Bungles. Add the extention to your Chrome Browser and it will work. If your wanting Google Chrome Flex scroll to it and select to both and it should select your USB automatically if its inserted otherwise select it.
Goes through the whole process except does not 'Write' It's still at 0% over 2 hours after getting to that step.
The Recovery Utility is not working. When the Chromebook Recovery Utility pops up, it freezes. The Get Started button appears to be not functioning? Anyone else having this problem? Is there another way to download it?
This extension is not supported for Ubuntu OS. For people who are using Ubuntu or any other linux distribution, refer the section 'Download from Google' in the following link below: https://support.google.com/chromeosflex/answer/11541904?hl=en
Het werkt al jaren prima, Je moet na installeren van de extensie er op klikken. En dan krijg je op windows en chromeos een popup window met een wizard te zien. Als dit niet werkt, dan is er vermoedelijk een adblocker of iets anders lastig aan het doen. Tevens hebben nieuwere chromebooks al een ingebouwde recovery download optie, zodat je deze tool dan niet nodig hebt. En soms moet je in windows wel toestemming voor uac geven, anders kan er inderdaad niet naar usb worden geschreven... En houd er ook rekening mee dat windows deze partities niet standaard ziet, kijk dus met een tool zoals minitool of de partieties zijn aangemaakt ! En verder heb ik ook wel eens het niet kunnen aanmaken, maar toen lag het echt aan brakke usb stick.
